You’ll play a key role in how OpenText brings its LegalTech solutions to market — helping legal and compliance teams across sectors discover smarter ways to manage risk, respond to litigation, and modernise their operations.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Identifying and engaging decision-makers within enterprise, legal, and public sector accounts alongside the existing AE / account owner
- Building and growing new customer relationships, while nurturing existing ones
- Selling directly with a focus on LegalTech and eDiscovery solutions
- Developing your own pipeline and owning the full sales cycle from prospecting to close
- Collaborating with the regional LegalTech sales team and partner ecosystem to pursue larger opportunities
- Creating tailored, insight-led business cases for each customer
- Using modern virtual tools to build meaningful, productive relationships
- Staying curious, creative, and commercially aware as you look for new opportunities
- Participation and engagement around marketing events and campaigns
- Experience in inside sales or business development, ideally in software or SaaS
- Knowledge of LegalTech or eDiscovery solutions
- Confidence working independently and owning a personal sales quota
- A proactive, solution-oriented mindset with strong communication skills
- The ability to balance high activity levels with strategic thinking
- A collaborative, team-first approach and a strong sense of accountability
- Motivation to grow your skills and career within a global tech business
